Glue-sniffing called

big teenage problem Washington Sniffing glue and other inhalants is a serious problem among American teenagers, and efforts to discourage it have been lost in broader campaigns against substance abuse, an anti-drug group said Wednesday.

Nearly one in five teenagers has tried inhalants, which can cause brain damage or kill, said the Partnership for a Drug-Free America. More teens experiment with inhalants than cocaine, LSD or other drugs, the group said.

Alan Leshner, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, estimated that 1,000 teens died every year from breathing fumes from easily accessible products, including glues, gases and sprays.

The partnership said that while many parents educated their kids against alcohol, marijuana and other drugs, few knew about the hundreds of household products that some kids inhaled to get high.

Trade Center bomb

suspect indicted New York The alleged mastermind of the World Trade Center bombing and a man arrested three months ago in the Philippines were indicted in an alleged plot to blow up American airplanes in the Far East, federal authorities said Thursday.

Abdul Hakim Murad, who was brought to New York overnight, and Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, the alleged Trade Center bombing figure, were named in the federal indictment announced Thursday in New York. The indictment was handed up March 22 and unsealed Wednesday in federal court in Manhattan, the statement said.

Yousef has been jailed here since his arrest in Pakistan in February.

FBI spokesman Joseph Valiquette said Murad, who also goes by the name Saeed Ahmed, was arrested at an apartment in Manila that Yousef had rented and from which police believed a plot to kill Pope John Paul II was being hatched.&lt;
